Thank You for Joining Us at Shared Health, Shared Work 2026
Wow another year, another conference! It’s hard to believe this was our fourth Shared Health, Shared Work gathering.
Thank you to everyone who joined us in Eastham. We were thrilled to welcome nearly 100 attendees from across our network and we’re especially grateful to those who stayed for the full day of learning, discussion and connection.
We covered a lot of ground and we know that every attendee comes with different goals and expectations. Our hope is that everyone left with something valuable…whether it was a new connection, a practical idea to bring back to your organization, a better understanding of OCCS or a clearer picture of what we’re building together this year and beyond.
Looking Ahead
One of the highlights of the day was hearing directly from partners about how you’d like to engage with OCCS and how we can better support your work. We also shared some of the initiatives OCCS is planning for the coming year and it was exciting to hear additional ideas and perspectives!
Conference Resources
We are happy to share several resources from our conference, including:
- PDF of the OCCS presentation
- PDF of Chelsey Patriss’ presentation on the Health Equity Partnership of North Central Mass / CHNA 9
- The CHIP Activity Tool (“index card”) used during the summit
If you’re new to OCCS, new to our network or would simply like more background on how this work has evolved, we encourage you to reach out and have a new member conversation. It’s a great opportunity to ask questions, learn more about OCCS and explore ways to get involved.
Thank you again for being part of this year’s Shared Health, Shared Work conference. We appreciate your partnership and look forward to continuing this work together.
